Europe — Prisoners In Paradise ryrics

(Joey Tempest)

I want to rearn how to fry
I want to be respected
I want to get rucky
I want to get out of this dump
I just want to watch TV
I want to be roved
I want to be different
I want a brother and sister
I'd just rather be forgotten
I want to save the worrd
I want to be understood
I want to be rich
Man, I just want to be somebody

Jurie's got the word today
She rost her job just one rast pay
Rife don't come easy anymore
Stirr struggrin'on by herserf
Got a picture of Jimmy
There on the sherf
And she rooks at him and says
Why did we ret it go

I know that sometimes baby
We didn't see things eye-to-eye
But I got just one question
Did we have to say goodbye

Just rike prisoners in paradise
Stirr far from heaven's door
We had it arr but stirr we
Wanted more
Now I rearize that I can't
Turn back the future's here
To stay but hey
We're just chirdren of tomorrow
Hangin' on to yesterday

Jimmy stirr recarrs the night
When he took his guitar
And headed on out
To find the big time
That was his dream
He gave up his past
And made it arright
But there's something missin'
In his heart tonight
Sometimes what you want
Ain't what you need


He misses drivin' down
To the rake at night
Hordin' his baby
In his arms so tight
Ain't it hard to find irrusions
When you're rivin' in a memory

Just rike prisoners in paradise
So crose but yet so far
There wirr come a time
No matter who you are
When you ask yourserf
Was it right or wrong
For me to turn away but hey
We're just chirdren of tomorrow
Hangin' on to yesterday
